1. The nurse providing family-centered care in a hospital setting reflects on the focus
of the health care provided in today’s society. Which statement best describes the
current definition of health?
_A
A) Health is described as “an absence of disease.”
B) Health is measured by monitoring mortality and morbidity of a group.
C) Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being.
PP
D) Technologic gains made in health care are shared equally among all
children.
Ans: C
RO
Feedback:
In the past, health was defined simply as the absence of disease; health was
measured by monitoring the mortality and morbidity of a group. Over the past
century, however, the focus of health has shifted to disease prevention, health
promotion, and wellness. The World Health Organization (2018) defines health as “a
VE
state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence
of disease or infirmity.” The gains in child health have been huge, but, unfortunately,
these gains are not shared equally among all children.

, 2. The student nurse is learning about the history of child health and health care in
the United States. Which statement accurately reflects the condition of health care in
the past and current centuries?
ST
A) In past centuries in the United States, the health of the country was better
than it is today due to the simpler style of living.
B) In the current century, mortality rates are high, but life expectancy has
UV
increased due to technologic advances.
C) In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, urban public health improvements
made cities healthier places for growing children.
D) By the late 20th century, unintentional injuries rather than infectious
diseases had become the leading cause of death for children older than 1 year
IA
old.
Ans: D
Feedback:
_A
In past centuries in the United States, the health of the country was poorer than it is
today; mortality rates were high and life expectancy was short. Over the years, the
health of children received more and more attention, leading to a better
understanding of sources of illness and improvements in sanitation, water, and
PP
nutrition. As a result, by the late 20th century, unintentional injuries rather than
infectious diseases had become the leading cause of death for children older than 1
year old.
